Got the message “WARNING: under normal conditions, _fillInQueueWithExtraSpace:..” and MPMoviePlayer rotation not work in iPad IOS 5.1

Question

It's my first post, and may be it may seem incorrect. So, I've to make rotation in cocos2d on iPad (5.1) I use 2 different videos to each orientation. And there I have 2 problems:

1. The app starts in portrait mode, and plays video normally. I call (play) the video 5-10 times, when video finishs I rotate simulator. The view rotates, BUT when I call (play) video - it shows white screen and the next message:

   "WARNING: under normal conditions, _fillInQueueWithExtraSpace:ignoreExistingItems: should not be re-entered."

   Then If I rotate screen again (several times) - and play it in landscape mode - it plays video well. Also vice versa. When I start from landscape mode

2. The View rotating problem. When I rotate view to the left/right landscape (from portrait) - can't rotate view backward. So I can rotate only in clockwise or counter clockwise. How to fix it?

-(id) init { 
  pathToVideoP = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"video_portrait" ofType:@"mp4"];
  pathToVideoL = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"video_landscape" ofType:@"mp4"];    
  theMovieP = [[MPMoviePlayerViewController alloc] initWithContentURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:pathToVideoP]];
  theMovieL = [[MPMoviePlayerViewController alloc] initWithContentURL:[NSURL fileURLWithPath:pathToVideoL]];
}

-(void) playVideoButtonClicked {
    movieButton.visible = FALSE;
    if (sharedManager.isPortrait){
        theMovie = theMovieP;
    } else {
        theMovie = theMovieL;
    }
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(movieFinishedCallback:) name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification object:[theMovie moviePlayer]];

    CGSize size = [[CCDirector sharedDirector] winSize];
    [[[CCDirector sharedDirector] openGLView] addSubview:theMovie.view];

    player = [self.theMovie moviePlayer];
    player.controlStyle = MPMovieControlStyleNone;
    [theMovie moviePlayer].view.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
    theMovie.view.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, size.width, size.height);

    if (sharedManager.isPortrait) {
        CGAffineTransform transform = player.view.transform;
        player.view.transform = transform;
    }
    else if (sharedManager.changeOrientation)
    {
        CGAffineTransform transform = player.view.transform;
        transform = CGAffineTransformRotate(transform, (-M_PI/2 ));
        player.view.transform = transform;
    }
    sharedManager.changeOrientation = NO;
    player.backgroundView.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
    theMovie.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
    player.view.userInteractionEnabled = NO;
    player.scalingMode = MPMovieScalingModeNone;
    [player play];
}

-(void) moviePreloadDidFinish:(id)sender {
}

-(void) movieFinishedCallback:(NSNotification*) aNotification {
    theMovie = [aNotification object];
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self name:MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification object:theMovie];    
    [player stop];
    [theMovie.view removeFromSuperview];
    movieButton.visible = TRUE;
}

Add this line of code After creating Player Object. player = [self.theMovie moviePlayer]; player.controlStyle = MPMovieControlStyleNone;

It's necessary in below version of iOS 6.0. May be it's helpful.

[player prepareToPlay];
